Powerball Jackpot rolls over to $25m; three players share First Division

The Powerball lottery jackpot has increased to $25 million after no single winner claimed the prize in the previous draw. Three players have shared the First Division prize, which is typically awarded to those who match all six main numbers. The rollover indicates that the ticket holders matched five numbers plus the Powerball number but did not win the top prize. This situation is common in lotteries where multiple tickets hold similar combinations, leading to shared prizes.
